There are going to be punches thrown in the US-Canada game. Unclear what the refs are doing at this point. #USMNT

#USMNT mostly advancing the ball down the field through defensive holding and pass interference penalties thus far

It's funny when a coach complains to the 4th official about a play. It's not like that official can change the call on the field.

Has the ref already lost control of the USA/CAN game? #usmnt

Canada having more luck getting into the final third, getting dangerous chances

also being way more physical

#usmnt

25' 0-0 In hockey parlance, this game is using Hudson Bay rules (anything goes)

#USMNT #USAvCAN #CANMNT #Canada

Justin Ellis is back on the field after some treatment on his ankle but limping majorly.

I don't think he makes it to halftime, might be best to conserve him. #USMNT

my #USMNT hot take is that Schwake and Kochen are both better than the three keepers we took to the World Cup

Justin Ellis goes down after a challenge with Stephen Eustaquio and is holding his ankle.

After the whistle, Malik Tillman and Nathan Saliba get into a pushing match for the ball.

#USMNT

Gosh, Canada are just hacking away at the #USMNT. 10 fouls through 19 minutes. Gotta start handing out yellows to get them to stop. It's persistent infringement if nothing else.

Pep ruined football. This #usmnt C-team has no business trying to play the ball out of the back. It’s a gift to any team, much less against Jesse Marsch’s press.

19' - 0-0 But Canada is winning physical battles

#USMNT #USAvCAN #CANMNT #Canada

#USMNT back 3 in the build out with Tillman dropping wide to make up the quasi LWB role. Dont hate it.

#CanMNT pressing high, would like to see us go a bit more direct to start to relieve the pressure and open up the spaces

Mauricio Pochettino and the #USMNT staff have communicated with the fourth official about some of Canada's challenges coming after the ball has gone.

Curious to see how it plays out.

Canada playing this friendly like it's a Concacaf qualifier. At this rate, the ref is going to lose control by the half ⚽ #usmnt #usavcan

Canada has really dictated a lot of the tempo in the opening 10+ minutes, holding the #USMNT at bay and pressing them when in possession.

I expect things will change but good start for the visitors and quiet start for the hosts.

May wanna get Reyna out of there. #USMNT
